I agree. On the other hand, some of the stuff Piet Mondrian does looks 
simple but really isn't.

Also, there's all kinds of nifty stuff that was cool and cutting edge when 
it was done and is now much closer to trash-anyone-can-do. Someone with $100 
of software and some time on the school's computer today can put together 
special effects to shame Star Wars. Submitting a signed urinal to a modern 
art exhibit was fabulously inventive, the first time. Just like with Myst 
clones, the first one was a great innovation in the art form engendered by a 
radical technological invention, and the knock-offs were knock-offs.
